Re: <G39> Pinning
my team, 1747, got called for pinning (and destroying the drivetrain of) 2783 (BMR qual. 52). Why? we didn't back up 3 feet each time (we backed up 1.5 at most). no cards, etc. for the brutality of the maneuver... we slammed them hard enough to snap an axle or do some other major drivetrain damage...

personally, i thought that was lenient... we were pushing to the point of them getting tilted. i didn;t think the drivers could get so brutal... but that's robotics i guess...
